Please release me: Animals stuck in strange places, in pictures

Another appliance based in Southam also attended and the hapless animal, named Billy by his rescuers, was freed at about 12.15pm. In a post on its Facebook page, the fire service said: 'The crew had to use a winch, strop and riot shield to remove the bull from the tree. The bull was released back in to the field and seems none the worse for wear for the ordeal.'
